New York's winning streak has continued and they struck first in the NBA Finals.
Jalen Brunson scored 30 points, Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds, and the Knicks erased a 14-point second-half deficit to beat San Antonio 105-95 in Game 1 of the finals on Wednesday (Thursday AEST).
OG Anunoby had 17 points for New York — who have won 12 consecutive playoff games, the seventh team to have such a streak in NBA history.
And the Knicks, who finished on an 11-0 run, made a little more history. They became the first team to beat San Antonio in a Game 1 of the title series — the Spurs were 6-0 in those — and this is also the first time they have ever trailed a finals before the finish.
